Jacintha Murphy Jacintha Murphy is an Irish visual artist/writer based in Berlin. A graduate of Limerick School of Art & Design’s Painting Department, she takes a painterly approach to creating bodily, fleshy objects and images dripping in Kristevan Abjection; works that demonstrate a dichotomous push & pull between attraction and repulsion. Using a variety of visceral, decayable, and sometimes living materials such as wax, paint, pomegranate seeds, fabric and bacterial cultures, she demonstrates the intrinsic relationship between destruction and creation, death and birth, presenting states that exist between these processes; states of becoming.
